If your planner dies after a week, you're not "not a systems person."
You used the wrong fuel.
You ran it on motivation. Motivation's a liar.
Bolt it to something you already do: "After I pour my coffee, I run the page."
No decision to lose. The coffee is the trigger.

@palassis Arghhh…
This my friend is the battle I have weekly
I’m doing good and on my path but what can I do to accelerate…
Thanks for making me sit and ponder some more 😂
English
I took a plunge.
I signed with a company to help me.
I'm spending more money than makes sense, but it's to push me further than I could ever go on my own.
In case you EVER wonder if I practice what I preach... I do.
Every day.
Otherwise, I'd shut up and delete this account.

The quietest thing costing you isn't the big stuff.
It's the dropped follow-up.
The "I'll get to that this week" that never makes the list.
Tomorrow, one line on your page: "Who do I owe a touch today?"
Write 3 names.
Visible follow-ups get done.
Invisible ones rot into an apology.

@dklineii I work daily on making this function better
And I’ve probably propelled myself twice as fast if not more on my goals and myself
English
@LevluP Exactly. Used well, you can finally make good on your good intentions. More time on judgment. Less time chasing the inputs to apply it.
English
AI won’t make a bad manager good.
But it can make a good manager dangerous.
The biggest unlock isn’t “AI writes emails.”
It’s using AI to create clarity before the day starts.
What matters?
What changed?
Who needs attention?
What decisions are waiting?
What can I stop reacting to?
I don’t want less humanity in leadership.
I want less admin stealing from the human part of leadership.
Dave Kline@dklineii
AI won't make a bad manager good, but it can make a good manager great. Instead of starting your day with email and letting everyone else decide what's important, have Claude work the nightshift and wake up prepared to focus on what really matters.

@suraj_sharma14 It’s going to be either fascinating or insane where we are in just 2 years
English
@LevluP That’s pretty much where I land. The tool is powerful. The questions about attribution, incentives and value sharing don’t disappear just because the tool is useful.
English
Bro I'm so sick of pretending this isn't weird.
The internet spent 20 years creating tutorials, open-source projects, blog posts & answers for free.
AI companies turned all of it into products worth billions.
And now the same people who created that knowledge are being told they're replaceable.
We built the library.
Someone else started charging admission.
English
This is the nuance people miss.
Delegation doesn’t mean disappearance.
You can have an awesome team and still need to stay close enough to see when the market shifts, the message gets stale, or the standards start drifting.
I’ve learned this managing teams:
If you completely take your hands off the wheel, don’t act shocked when the car finds a ditch.
Trust the team.
But keep steering.
English
Have a friend doing 1m/mo with his YouTube coaching offer
He was expecting 800-900k cash collected this month but ended up around 1.5m
He was letting his team run one of his main marketing channels, they're great but they weren't innovating on new content styles
He took over and immediately saw massive growth again
His team is awesome but he had to come back in to steer the ship
English
“Hire great people and get out of the way” is advice from people who have never watched a great person quietly run a department into the ground while the founder was busy getting out of the way…
Great talent still needs a great system, otherwise you handed a Ferrari to someone with no road.
English
This is dead on.
“Get out of the way” sounds great until you realize leadership is not disappearing.
Great people still need direction.
Clear standards.
Feedback loops.
A system to win inside of.
I’ve watched talented people struggle simply because the lane was unclear.
That’s not a people problem.
That’s a leadership problem.
English
@brightafia This is underrated.
Your commute quietly taxes your whole life.
Energy.
Patience.
Family time.
Workout time.
Sleep.
Mood.
I’ve done the long commute thing.
It doesn’t just cost miles.
It costs parts of you that don’t always show up on a spreadsheet.
English
The distance between your house and your job really affects your quality of life.
English
This is where real friends matter.
Encouragement is not always kindness.
Sometimes the kindest thing you can say is:
“I believe in you, but I don’t think this plan is ready yet.”
I’m all for betting on yourself.
But quitting your job with a weak product, no proof, and no real runway isn’t courage.
That’s gambling with extra steps.
Build proof first.
Then make the leap.
Andrea Bosoni@theandreboso
A friend wants to quit his job to launch a startup and I believe it’s a terrible idea (both the product and the leaving the job part) but I’m not sure what to tell him. If I say what I really think I’m afraid I will hurt his feelings but on the other hand if I encourage this to go ahead I feel like I’m doing him a disservice.
English
@unleashtherush This is the annoying truth about procrastination.
The thing I’ve been avoiding for 3 weeks usually takes 47 minutes once I finally stop negotiating with it.
Then I sit there like…
That was it?
All that mental drama for one focused hour?
Motion fixes a lot.
English
It is amazing how much we can truly get done
When we are in motion, strategic and intentional
You can get done in an hour what you have been putting off for days or weeks
Find the little actions to get the wins
Let it compound
English
This is how every hobby starts.
“Just going to look into it.”
Thirty minutes later you’re comparing gear, watching reviews, and financially planning like this new hobby has a board of directors.
I respect it.
But I’ve learned the hard way there’s a thin line between interest and accidentally building a second mortgage out of accessories.
English
Fighting the urge to spend
an ungodly amount of money on a hobby I
developed 30 mins ago
English
This is the goal.
Smart is not helpful if nobody can use it.
I’ve sat through enough meetings where someone used 47 fancy words to say absolutely nothing.
And yes, I’ve probably been that guy once or twice.
The real skill is taking what you know and making it simple enough for someone else to actually do something with it.
English
@DearS_o_n Simple plan.
Hard to actually live.
Make money.
Train your body.
Stay out of nonsense.
Repeat.
Most people don’t need a more complicated July plan.
They need to stop turning every month into a fresh documentary about why this month got away from them.
English
This is the part of money I care about most.
Not flexing.
Not fancy stuff.
Options.
The ability to say no.
The ability to protect your family.
The ability to choose where your time goes.
The ability to not be owned by every emergency, opinion, or opportunity.
Money doesn’t make you better than anyone.
But it can give you breathing room.
English
Make more money not to buy fancy things... but to bow to no one.
English
The advantage is no longer access to AI.
It’s judgment.
Everyone has the tool now.
Not everyone knows what problem is worth solving, what output is actually useful, or how to turn ideas into execution.
AI gives leverage.
But the operator still matters.
A confused person with AI just becomes confused faster.
English
Everyone has AI now.
That advantage expired fast.
What's the new advantage?
